The 3.6 MW high voltage interface for the LEP main ring klystrons

  • 1. CERN, Geneva (Switzerland)

Description

Each LEP main ring accelerating station has a high voltage interface wherein power is distributed and regulated for two 1 MW klystrons. Operating at 92 kV d.c. the interface comprises a switch, protection resistors and a filter capacitor, two tetrode regulated modulators, as well as a single stage rapid protection device or crowbar. Filament power for each klystron is also provided at the high voltage level. A general description is presented. All of the elements of each high voltage interface are housed in a small chamber 2 m high x 2 m wide x 5 m long in the klystron galleries of LEP
